Gallium Announces Contract Award for Embedded ATC Trainer
Gallium Visual Systems announced today that it was recently awarded a contract for the delivery and integration of an Embedded Trainer for the U.S. Navy AN/TPX-42(V) IFF systems. The AN/TPX-42(V) provides the primary air traffic control capability in the Carrier Air Traffic Control Centers (CATCCs) and Amphibious Air Traffic Control centers (ATCCs) aboard Aircraft Carriers and Amphibious Assault ships.
The Embedded Trainer provides scenario-based, integrated interactive data and voice response capability on any shipboard AN/TPX-42(V) console without interfering with on-going operations. The Embedded Trainer is based on Gallium's scalable I-SIM advanced Air Traffic Control simulator, a high fidelity training simulator used in Air Traffic Control Training and airspace analysis by the FAA and Collegiate Training Institutes. The embedded training solution integrates seamlessly with Gallium's InterMAPhics-based AN/TPX-42(V) operational display software.
The Firm Fixed Price contract, competitively awarded by the Naval Air Warfare Center Aircraft Division, Lakehurst, NJ, provides options for up to 50 production systems. Gallium's principle subcontractor is Coherent Technical Solutions, Inc., a Veteran-Owned Small Business located in Lexington Park, MD.
